How It's Going To Be

( C  G  C  G )

( C  Am  G  C )

C                             G
   Across the city steam and light
       C                        
Off a runway to the manufactured 
  G
night
C                              Am
   In storybooks you'll never find
Bm                            Em
   In paper armor that you'd mind
C                              
   They'll hold the match to you 
        Am
this time
And watch the smoke rings fit the 
  G
crime

C                            G
   In moments you cannot reprise
        C                          
Like a soldier or a watch that you 
       G
can't wind
C                                 
   We fought the world with hands 
       Am
twice-tied

Bm                                
   The people cheered, the captain
  Em
 cried
C                          Am
   I'll keep the souvenir inside
                        G
It's just better in my mind

    Em         Bm
And I wouldn't lie
               G
I never really wanted more
                         Em
Than what I ever really needed after
 all
                             G
Someone that hates to see me go

C                               G
   You made a promise then you hide
         C                      
And you said we'd all be dead by 
         G
twenty-five
C                              Am
   It's not your disappointed sigh
Bm                            
   It's not you traded this for 
   Em
pride
C                           Am
   Not that we really even mind
            G
We're just bored, you're still alive

    Em         Bm
And I wouldn't lie
   G             C
If I tried, take me down
       Am    D        G
And if I... die here now

( D  Em  Em  C  D )

( G  F#m  Em  C  D )

 G                                 
Wishing wells and magic spells and 
D
everything between
Em
Can you tell me what it's like?
    C   D    C    D  G
Or how it's going to be?
